Attention
• It takes about 30 minutes for the monitor display to stabilize. Please wait 30 or more minutes after the monitor
power has been turned on, and then adjust the monitor.
• Perform the range adjustment rst when adjusting color for analog signals (see “Auto Range Adjust” (page
12)).
• Each monitor has individual differences. For analog signals, if the same image is displayed side by side on
multiple monitors, even the same image may appear different colors. Perform the range adjustment rst when
matching the colors of multiple monitors (see “Auto Range Adjust” (page 12)).

Brightness
The screen brightness is adjusted by changing the brightness of the backlight (light source from the
LCD back panel).
Setting Range
0 % to 100 %
Note
• If the image is too dark even when the brightness is set to 100 %, increase the contrast value.
Contrast
The brightness of the screen is adjusted by varying the video signal level.
Setting Range
0 % to 100 %
Note
• When the contrast is set to 100 %, all the color gradations are shown.
• When adjusting the monitor, it is recommended to perform the brightness adjustment which may not lose the
grayscale characteristics, prior to the contrast adjustment.
• Perform the contrast adjustment in the following cases.
- If the screen is too bright even when the brightness is set to 0 %
Temperature
The color temperature can be adjusted.
The color temperature is normally used to express the color of "White" and/or "Black" by a numerical
value. The value is expressed in degrees "K" (Kelvin).
The screen becomes reddish at a low color temperature, and bluish at a high color temperature, like
a ame temperature. The gain preset values are set for each color temperature setting value.
Setting Range
Native, 6000 K to 15000 K (in increments of 100 K), sRGB
Note
• The value shown in "K" is available only as reference.
• Selecting "Gain" allows you to perform more advanced adjustment (see “Gain” (page 11)).
• If you set to "Off", the image is displayed in the preset color of the monitor (Gain: 100 for each RGB).
• When gain is changed, the color temperature is changed to "Off".
Gamma
Adjust the gamma. The brightness of the monitor varies depending on the input signal, however, the
variation rate is not simply proportional to the input signal. The control performed to keep the balance
between the input signal and the brightness of the monitor is called "Gamma correction".
Setting Range
1.6 to 2.7, sRGB
